Unit testing with Jest, React, and TypeScript  
Software testing is critical to lower the chances of our program failing by running tests with the end-user in mind. Testing-library/react is a testing utility tool that's built to test the actual DOM tree rendered by React on the browser. The goal of the library is to help you write tests that resemble how a user would use your application.

How we migrated from Bootstrap to Tailwind CSS.  
Tailwind CSS is a utility-first CSS framework packed with classes like flex, pt-4, text-center, and rotate-90 that can be composed to build any design, directly in your markup. In our examples, we will use packages and commands related to the GatsbyJS static-site generation framework. This function adds the content in before the page is rendered. Don’t waste your time trying networkidle.

MockingJest allows you to mock objects in your test files. You can turn on automatic mocking with automock which will mock every component/object that the component is part of your project. For the first test, we'll write a simple test that ensures that Jest was set up correctly and that it can run a test successfully.
